1: Consider School from a Students' Perspective
As teachers we need to put ourselves on the opposite side of the teachers desk to make sure that we are being effective. It is important that me make sure we grasp our students attention, and that we are able to maintain it throughout our lesson. If we believe most students will better comprehend the information by doing hands on activities or group work, then it is our job to facilitate learning in such a way.
2: Choose activities that prepare students to learn
It is important that you use yourself as a tool and resource in the classroom. Showing confidence, leadership, and assurance in the material is key to successful teaching. Pair share, group work, and classroom activities will facilitate deep processing of information. If these things are done, the learners will obtain the best results and be the most successful in your classroom.

I definitely agree with what you said about teachers needing to put themselves on the other side of the teacher's desk. I think that some teachers, after they have taught for a number years, almost forget what it is like to be a student. It's important for us to remember what activities we enjoyed as students and also not to overburden our students with a ton of information or projects at one time; as teachers, we should work together with other content areas to make sure that our students are not overburdened at any one point in the marking period/semester.
